How to show value help with values for Application Job parameters - BTP ABAP Environment

[Muthu_raja]

Hello Team,

I have created Application Job Catalog Entries & Application Job Templates with two Selection parameters. I want to have this parameters a value help values so users can select from popup. In the Job Catalog entry, I have defined Value help exit class with Implemented interface IF_APJ_RT_VALUE_HELP_EXIT. How can I populate the value help values for these two parameters ?

I didn't find any blog/documentation related to this.

@FrankJentsch  @Andre_Fischer  - Could you please help me here ? The Value help exit is available in the Job Catalog entries but when I populate some values in the class it doesn't visible in the F4 Help dialog

Thanks a lot.

Best Regards,

Muthu

Hello Team, Can anyone help with this issue ?

Hello,

value help are currently not supported. It will be implemented according to the clean core rules after some general architectural decisions are done.

Hello,

currently we don't have a time frame when value help will be available.

Any update on this? This is a pretty significant and fundamental usability gap.

Do not know that whether it is available with latest release adhering to Clean Core concept, but I found out a way to attach value helps to parameters in class-based application job catalog. @Muthu_raja 

Create data element & attach SE11 value help to it / use existing standard data elements which has search help linked.

Pass this data element to COMPONENT_TYPE in ET_PARAMETER_DEF

Here you go.

Found by debugging OData calls when we select Job Template in Application Job app. CL_APJ_JOB_MANAGEMENT_DPC_EXT class provides data of parameters, value helps, characteristics, linkages etc.

Hi Muthu,

to be honest your requirement is not clear for me.

Are you talking about step 3 when using the application job app when data is filled in the parameters section like when using the template "Lock Unused Business Users" ?

Kind regards,

Andre

Hello @Andre_Fischer,

I would like to show some data when I click and open value help dialog but unable to do that now.

I have checked the template for "Lock Unused Business users" in the ADT which tells it was created using report based catalog entries but in the BTP ABAP environment we cannot do this GUI.

What is an alternative way for this ? How do we populate our custom value help dialog in these job parameters.

Thanks a lot.

Best Regards,

Muthu

Hi colleagues, do you happen to have news on this topic?

Are value helps really not supported for parameters in Application Job Templates?

Thanks and regards,

Gabriel
